My 2 channel music system

by karavite on Opinions Please

Description

This is my current real 2 channel system and I am super happy with it. The heart of it all is the 44 year old H H Scott 222(A) integrated amp I bought right here on Audiogon for $275. I love love love this thing to death and it is killing any other new amps I have heard for up to $1500. I just got the Omega speakers from Louis at Omega. They are wonderful and a great compliment to the Scott. My sources are just fine as are my interconnects, but I really need to do something about speaker cables and speaker stands. Any opinions or advice on any of this, please feel free to chime in. However, I must warn you, I have gotten a little too obsessed with this whole audio thing, but I now realize how to spend much less for much more. I am finally happy with MUSIC and this system lets me concentrate on nothing else.

One can almost hear the quickness (of the pace) and sheer presence (of the performers) by "just looking" at the pictures (of this outstanding assembly of equipment).
Your system speaks (quite literally) volumes (if you desire) about spending too much without reasonable gain.
Good work w/ good sound as a reward. Don't get much better. Nice eye candy as well !

Thanks' for sharing !
